We are happy to invite another great builder into the shop; this time French luthier Dominique Delarue. A classical builder, Delarue began his woodworking career as a cabinet maker before becoming absorbed by the world of instrument-making in his adult years. Delarue‘s craftsmanship is impeccable, as you can see in the photos below, and he has a great eye for tonewoods (here we have an excellent sample of East Indian Rosewood back and sides and a tight-grained Western Red Cedar top).
The guitar is warm to the touch, and sings with a sweet panoply of overtones. The 2″ (52 mm) nut and Ebony fretboard allow for smooth left hand technique, and the setup allows for a delicate responsiveness: this is a sensitive instrument which reacts to the lightest attack.
This guitar comes with a Hiscox hardshell case.
This is the first Delarue we've gotten in the shop, but I hope it won't be the last. This classical has a superb, sweet tone, and the harmonics shine with lots of sustain. | Scale Length | 25.5000 in |
